We're hiring a Finance Manager who's as comfortable in the ledger as in the leadership meeting.
Knightsbridge Group is a legal, immigration, real estate and corporate-services consultancy operating across Dubai, London and Istanbul. We're looking for a Finance Manager to own our finance function end to end - accounting, tax, reporting, cash and controls and to lead the Finance team.
This is a hands-on seat, not a back-office one. You'll run the close and the tax filings, build the budget with every head of department, and work closely with Management on pricing, hiring and new jurisdictions.
What you'll own
• Month-end, quarter-end and year-end close across multiple entities under IFRS, plus a management pack leadership reads.
• UAE VAT and Corporate Tax filings on the FTA portal, and all statutory compliance for the group.
• Client billing, receivables and the overdue-accounts process — including collection agencies where needed.
• Cash flow, a 13-week rolling forecast across AED, USD, EUR and GBP, and the group's banking relationships.
• The annual budget and rolling forecast, built with every head of department.
• The external audit, end to end, for every entity.
• A finance team you lead, coach and develop.
What we're looking for
• ACCA, CPA or CMA - fully qualified, or with only the final level outstanding.
• 6+ years of progressive finance experience, including 2+ years leading or supervising a team in UAE.
• 3+ years of hands-on UAE VAT and Corporate Tax filing experience - this one's non-negotiable.
• Full IFRS financial statements, including multi-entity consolidation.
• Professional-services experience (law firm, consultancy) with time-based billing and client money is a strong plus.
• Excellent command of English and the ability to communicate confidently with clients, vendors and other stakeholders is a must.
What's in it for you
• A competitive remuneration, UAE employment visa, medical insurance and annual flight allowance.
• Support for the final stage of your professional qualification.
• Real scope - the finance function of a growing international group, reporting directly to Management, with a path to Head of Finance.
